Mounting SMB shares in /etc/fstab

I'm slowly getting there.....many things have been worked through and
solutions found, but I am having some problems still with the
networking. I have created a link to (url) smb://10.0.0.4 which is the
WinXP box and can browse my shares, copy files over, etc.
I have created a line in /etc/fstab to automount the share:
//10.0.0.4/data_shared /mnt/data_shared smbfs
username=bryan,password=jasper,umask=000 0 0
(that's all on one line)
This gives me a /mnt/data_shared that I can open and copy files from,
but if I try and create a directory on the share, or delete a file,
I get an error message saying "access denied"
What have I got wrong/missing from my fstab line? Any ideas?
